Offer an Online Backup Service to SMBs Plus Business Continuity Assurance

July 27th, 2009 Comments off

For small and medium businesses (SMBs), being prepared means being ready for any type of disaster. The obvious impacts of a loss of data can be devastating. Most SMBs can’t sustain productivity after a collapse of technology. In fact, the chance of a business surviving after such a loss is a slim chance, at best. Going a day, a week, a month without critical data causes a forceful blow to productivity that many cannot endure.

As an Online Backup Service Provider, you can offer SMBs an affordable yet profitable service that can literally mean the difference between the life and death of their business.

Even after the devastating effects of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005, nearly half of SMBs are still performing incorrect backups. Many are still opting for tape backups, a practice that is quickly becoming antiquated, even with advancements in the technology. On the flip side, offsite backup technology has made great strides to effectively secure your data online automatically at a price that is easy to justify.

Offering an offsite backup option backed with technology such as RBackup allows you to target the SMB market easily because you are able to offer a superior product crucial to the SMB industry. In addition, supporting highly marketable features particularly beneficial for SMBs will set you apart from the competition.

  • Offer several Government-sanctioned encryption schemes
  • Offer off-site automated, unattended backups with status updates via email notification
  • Offer real-time file restoration capabilities
  • Offer remote web restoration capabilities
  • Offer competitive pricing for your clients for a service that is continuously being testing and improved
  • Offer redundant backups of the same files at different points in their development
  • Offer brick-level support for live Microsoft Exchange databases, multiple-instance support for live SQL databases and automatic remote updates to the RBackup client software.

Automation and centralized management of your backups is the only infallible way to eliminate the risks associated with safeguarding data. Offering a fully-managed backup service to your customers allows you to focus on delivering a value-added service to SMBs, designed to help them meet their critical business needs.

While this is the time of year for coastal residents to prepare for possible natural disasters, RBS hopes to encourage safe computer practices to avoid the many other threats for which SMBs are at risk every day. Hardware failure, viral attacks, and deliberate sabotage top the list of possible dangers.

SMBs take many risks, but losing data due to ineffective backup practices shouldn’t be one of them. Offer your clients a reliable backup option with services that are tailed to their needs, increasing your own profitability and customer satisfaction.

Online Backup Software Company Activates Emergency Hot Site; Warns of Threats to Data Safety

July 23rd, 2009 Comments off

(Memphis, TN) Remote Backup Systems, the founders of the online backup industry and developers of the RBackup and Mercury OEM Online Backup platforms today announced the activation of its Emergency Backup Hot Site for use by its Service Providers in the path of hurricane activity this season.

Remote Backup Systems has offered this business-saving service to their licensees dating back to hurricane Hugo in 1989. This resource is available to online backup service providers in areas who are in danger of a natural disaster affecting their data center.

If an RBS Server goes offline because of a natural disaster, RBS can temporarily take backups from provider’s clients at the Hot Site near Memphis, Tennessee, so the Service Provider doesn’t suffer further. When the disaster is over and the providers’ servers go back online, they can download the backups and resume normal business.

“We are in the business of backups. We have a plan of action in the event of everyday disasters, so catastrophic events are no different for us,” explained Rob Cosgrove, CEO and founder of Remote Backup Systems. “The hope is that being prepared ahead of time will eliminate added stress during the unfortunate event of an emergency, as well as make recovery for our Service Providers as quick of a process as possible.”

This year’s hurricane season forecast is projected to be an active one with anywhere from nine to fourteen named storms, of which four to seven could become hurricanes, including as many as three major hurricanes. Remote Backup Systems encourages all of its Online Backup Service Providers in threatened areas to visit the company’s website at www.remote-backup.com for more information on the Hot Site service, including guidelines and instructions for activation.

Built into Remote Backup Systems multi-award winning flagship product, RBackup, is an additional special feature that will enable a service provider to maintain normal business in the event of a disaster. The RBS Server Locator enables you to operate an RBS Server on an inexpensive non-dedicated Internet connection with a dynamic IP address anywhere in the world. No other RBS company offers this cutting-edge service.

In an outage of Internet service, Providers can simply move their equipment to an alternate location with Internet service, and the Server Locator will seamlessly redirect their clients within seconds to the new location.
